The sea in a glass

Biancammare comes from a picturesque Grillo vineyard planted by Nino Barraco beside the Mediterranean nearly two decades ago. Farmed organically along the windswept coast of Marsala, the site captures the intense sunlight and unmistakable maritime character of western Sicily.

The grapes were picked early to retain freshness, then fermented on skins for one day before pressing into vats for a short rest. Bright, salty and distinctly briny, the wine carries gentle texture and a refreshing coastal energy. As Nino says, “il mare nel bicchiere”, the sea in the glass. A natural partner for crudo, oysters and simply prepared seafood.

Why we love it

Salty, radiant and unmistakably Mediterranean, this is seaside Sicilian Grillo at its most evocative.

About the Winemaker
In 2004, Nino Barraco took over his family’s vineyards and set out with a vision that diverged from convention. Farming organically and working exclusively with native grapes, he has dedicated himself to producing single-vineyard wines that capture both purity and a true sense of place.

Along the windswept coastline of Marsala, he now tends nearly twenty hectares planted to varieties such as Grillo, Catarratto, Zibibbo, Nero d’Avola, and Perricone. Each parcel is harvested, vinified, and bottled on its own, allowing the individuality of soils, exposures, and maritime influence to come through. His approach in the cellar is marked by restraint: guiding the wine gently from vineyard to bottle, avoiding manipulation, and preserving authenticity. Saline, radiant, and sunlit, Barraco’s wines embody the landscape — or, as he often remarks, they are “the sea in a glass.”
